! Selecting needle
When using special threads such as gold, silver, and rame yarn, use a heavy-duty needle (#11~
#16). For better finish, paste the waxed paper on the back of the material.
In general, use DB×K5 #11 ~ #18 according to the material thickness. For knitted materials, use
DB×K23 #11 because its rounded point prevents the knit thread from breaking.
